Default RE: Funtana 90!

Well.. I've got 20+ flights on mine now.. and it's still just a blast to fly. I put a 16x4 on the YS 1.10 which I know is a bit light.. but I never use full throttle except in emergency punchouts from hovers and such.. but I really like the quick spool time. I does overrev the YS if I'm not VERY careful..

I really threw some rough 3D at it today and it just did it without complaint. Harrier rolling circle that rolls so quick I'm still not sure how I kept up with it.. hehe. Full throttle blenders (throttle added AS I went full deflection on rudder/elevator... NOT during the dive) and I was treated with a quick transition to a climbing flat spin. I think I popped a tail support brace loose on the last one.. elevator felt a bit funny so I landed and one was loose. This prompted another thought.. if at ANY time when you flying.. not just the Funtana but ANY airplane, but any time the airplane feels strange.. LAND.. right away. Check it out.
